Some people are mad, but some are totally crazy. That red dot is a man venturing out on to the Green Bridge of Wales. Possible on a calm summer day. Not in the middle of winter on a windy day. I could barely watch!

I know this selective colouring does not please everyone, but just now I am really enjoying the effects.... I guess it's a phase I am going through in my quest to become a photographer!!

I know I posted this image earlier, but in this version I removed couple dots on the yellow line which in my opinion were distraction, also fixed dark blue marks on the black which was not visible with none calibrated monitors, but thanks to KPK who noticed it and suggested to fix them. I also fixed yellow and white colours.

I hope you like this version; by the way it is still exhibited at the BezpalaBrown gallery, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I've finally come to a lull and feeling a bit bored so played around with one I took earlier in the month. You have to view this in large before you can see the stick the dog is chasing.

Whatever this was, it clearly no longer functions as a receptacle for litter, an ideal place to drop dogshit bags though (apparently).

Here comes the Sun

After so long without using Flickr, really hoping I can come back to this little corner that taught me so much and brought me so many happy moments.

The corner block.

After another hike in the fares and another change to the time tables I'm starting to understand why so many people stick to their little cars.

Though who can resist being chauffeur driven anywhere you want and being able to nosy over walls and in upstairs windows.

You can't do that in your little vroom vroom :oP

I love Rubber Duckies!

This was early in the morning in Montmartre, Paris and a little too cool for sitting outside. It is interesting how Parisians love to sit in these outside cafes with the chairs facing the streets. People watching is one of their favourite pastimes. Notice how these chairs are positioned.

So there steiner and I stood on the beach, looking at the lighthouse in the distance. 'Doesn't look too far' we said '20 minute walk tops'......

Nearly 2 hours and 5 miles of trudging slowly through deep shingle in the drizzle we finally arrived...and then realised we'd have to go back again....!

Was it worth the effort? That I'll leave for you to decide, flickr friends! ;-)
